They told Glenn that if George Bush were re-elected black ministers who identified government conspiracies would experience a stifling of their dissent - and they were right!
Don Surber is having even more fun than I am. I hate to think this might end.
Spike loves Obama. "He's a unifier." Nothing Spike Lee wants more than to be unified with the white devil Republicans who engineered the destruction of New Orleans, and probably the election of black figureheads in that city to mismanage the evacuation.

Spike Michelle!
Do you think more people would vote for O if they had 15 minutes with Michelle?
"Mrs. Obama embraced the argument that her husband was unknown, arguing that it established him as an "underdog."
------------
""So this is the difficult thing. This is why it's always an uphill battle," she continued. "Folks in this country believe that, who they think they know, is safer than who they're not quite sure that they know."
-------------
""Our values transcend it all,” she said. “And its not that other candidates have values; it’s just how they are translated in their politics. Sometimes folks who have been in this for a while, they just don't know how to be anything than what the process has been. That's why sometimes you need new blood just to shake it up a bit."
PLEASE READ THE WHOLE THING:
Michelle defends, re-introduces husband

Bull, Tom. NO ONE is having more fun they you are. Surber's a distant second. The rest of us are looking at the state of the world, the three candidates, and indulging in excessive quantities of alcoholic beverages. (Poor HIT hasn't even been allowed out to play in DAYS.)

Circular firing squad among the demagogues?
Sorry, I'm with Tom -- this is too much fun. Gotta enjoy the moment, folks...;)

"Our values transcend it all,” she said.
So, she was supposedly rallying the troops to go forth and testify to Obama's greatness, but she gave them only vague words like "change" and "our values"? Maybe they'll remember the "everyone needs to get a smaller piece of the pie" story. Or the "we're struggling to pay those summer camp fees and piano/ballet lessons on last year's $4.2 million income" story.

If Barack is elected, look for the creation of the Department of Hectoring.

A little afternoon delight.
Conspiracy theories? Well, they've already started regarding the suicide of the DC Madame.

But not to worry, David Corn is on it:

Don't tell the black church to shut up, Spike!
Posted by: Jeremiah Wright | May 01, 2008 at 10:51 PM
It's really pretty simple. Spike just wants anyone who says anything he doesn't like to shut up. I'm not surprised.
Posted by: JorgXMcKie | May 01, 2008 at 11:04 PM
Gee, it's just so hard to imagine Corn meeting anyone in sordid fashion, isn't it? We should probably check with Larry Johnson for the scoop here.

David Corn is such a pansy, we sure did not need his denial here.

Hey BTW when I open up the screenshot linked to his what looks like MySpace page, and I squint mightily, it appears this foul mouthed dweeb is listing himself as a History major from the University of Michigan. That is the Peoples Republic of Ann Arbor, and to me explains a hell of a lot. The Masters degree was just so he did not have to ask everyone if they wanted it supersized.

You can have popcorn, Don--Glad you stopped in. As TM got started on his non-stop hilarity I bought the stuff by the case.
